What platform of computer are you using (i.e. Mac or PC) and what version is your Operating system (e.g. Mac 10.x.x or PC XP, Vista, Windows 7). Also what web browser are you using (e.g. Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox)?

Even though I have a Mac, I am running Windows XP virtualization software which allows me to run Windows XP in a separate window. I have all the latest SW updates in my XP system. I started up Windows XP, then opened up Internet Explorer and went to Dancesizzle web site. I viewed a bunch of videos from OSB 2009 page and everything worked OK for me. The videos played using the Windows Media Player. So, for me, everything is working OK on my XP system at the Dancesizzle web site. There may be something wrong with your XP system in displaying videos using Windows media player on Internet Explorer. You could try to install Firefox web browser software and see if encounter same problem (www.firefox.com). If that doen't work, I'd recommend having someone else look at your PC and see if can determine a fix. Hope this helps. pruthe.

The other thing you can do is to have someone to look at your Internet settings. I had the same issue. I could play in explorer, but not in firefox. Also, not at work. I believe the company decided to block to watch stream videos. So I think definitely they did something.
